Chapter 438: New Ghostly Allies (2/2)

”A-Ah… Yeah, they're cute… Shouldn't I?” I asked.

”No… I-I guess its fine if its you.” She said while blushing.

Uwah, I feel like we have bonded once more in this little time. I suppose touching the horns of an ice giant is a big thing. Not many would let each other horns be touched, I guess.

”Drake…” she said.

”Yes?” I asked.

”Where were you last night?” she asked while furrowing her eyebrows.

”Ah… I thought you were sleeping…” I said.

”Even if I was, I still realized you were gone… So where did you go? You didn't… go to Mikohime's room, right?” she asked, her eyes suddenly became strongly predatory.

”Benladann, do you have so little faith in me as your husband? I would never do such a thing!” I said.

”T-Then tell me where you were…” she said.

”Sigh…”

I opened my Inventory and dropped a large pile of Mana Cores in front of the bed.

”Uwah! W-What are these? Huh? Rank 4 Mana Cores…? Not only the snake ones but… W-What are these ones? So many different elements! Wait… t-those are rank 5?! And two?!” she asked.

”I went to plunder the graveyard last night and stole all the Mana Cores in the corpses… After that… erm, well, I plundered the inheritance of the ancestor of the sect, and found her ghost and that of her dragon, they were annoying, but I made a good pact with them… Now they became my ghosts.” I said.

”Y-You did all of that last night?!” she asked agitatedly. She was really getting surprised.

”Calm down… And yeah, I planned to tell you anyways… Yukihime and Mikoto are here too, I mean, in my shadows… Come out.” I said.

I quickly showed Benladann the powerful Ghost of the Ancestor of the Winter Lotus Sect and then her Lunar Dragon Ghost, Yukihime and Mikoto.

”W-Woah…” Benladann was left utterly shocked.

”Is this your wife? I can detect and immense quantity of dark power within her… Just by being close to her I feel like she's going to devour me…” said Yukihime, flying away fearfully.

”N-Nice to meet you…” said Mikoto.
